and wireless "hot spots" with solutions for properties ranging

is not "if" a property should deploy high-speed Internet

running. The RDP-Nomadix interface can then post charges
to the guest folio.

- Non-guests can be charged using a credit card or
national wireless account

Point of Sale
(POS) |
RDP has interfaced to a wide variety
of point-of-sale systems with the following features:
- Automatically post charges to the guest folio from
a restaurant, bar, spa, golf course, gift shop, etc.
- Provide an “inquire first” capability when your
POS system supports this feature. For example,
a clerk in the restaurant can first inquire to see who
is in Room 102, prior to posting a charge.
- Optional pre-check-in posting is available for all
POS interfaces using the "Micros" standard. For
example, a guest may arrive at the property at noon,
but the room is not ready until 4:00pm. The guest
can put a credit card on file and start charging items
immediately using their reservation number as verification.
- Optional post-check-out posting is available for
all POS interfaces using the "Micros" standard.
For example, a guest may checkout at noon but still
use the facilities for the rest of the day and charge
items, which are then paid for by the credit card on
file.

Supported Vendor List.

the front desk. Once the guest is checked out through
the Enhanced Movie Interface, RDP's availability is immediately
updated and the room is marked "dirty and vacant" for the
housekeeping department.

system installation, general ledger account numbers can
be assigned for the chart of accounts. The system
automatically makes all entries to these customized account
numbers using standard double-entry accounting principles.
At the end of each day, a balanced general ledger entry
can be automatically transferred from the RDP sub-ledger
to your primary back office General Ledger System.
Automatic transfer is supported with the following back-office
systems.
